Happy Birthday, Edvard Munch! 🎂 The Norwegian painter and graphic artist would have turned 155 today. In our museum you can admire some of his works, such as »Nude Girl on a Red Cloth«. This nude is a seductive redhead. The scarlet red cloth on the white sheet appears to flow around the pale body, just as the rich splendid hair flows around the face with its ambiguous smile and veiled gaze. The striking contrast of white and red against the full green of the wallpaper creates an atmosphere of sultry eroticism, anxious tension and corruption. In this context the young woman appears not only as a seductress but - as is emphasized by the blood-red cloth - as a victim. And as every Wednesday, you can enjoy this painting by Munch and many more works by other artists in our permanent collection for free!
